Lauretta Jean's Expanding into Division's Former Pix Space

SE Division is getting more dessert. Downtown pie shop Lauretta Jean's will open its second location in the space recently vacated by Pix Patisserie (which is consolidating its operations in a new E. Burnside space). Portland Monthly breaks the news:

[Owner] Kate McMillen tells Eat Beat that the new shop will offer ultra-comforting breakfast pastries, savory quiches, egg sandwiches on flaky house-made biscuits, espresso, and — naturally — plenty of sky-high pies by the slice.

Lauretta Jean's (named for McMillen's grandmother) originated as a farmer's market stand, then expanded into SW 6th's Cafe Velo space in September of last year. McMillen's SE Division location — complete with indoor seating — is scheduled for a September opening. More as it becomes available.
